Sitting volleyball tournament in United States
The 2025 Pan American Sitting Volleyball Championships – Women’s tournament is the biannual continental championship, contested by the senior women’s national sitting volleyball teams in the Americas region, sanctioned by ParaVolley Pan America. It was held in Denver, United States from 24 to 27 May 2025, marking the third time the event is held in the country.
Three teams took part, one more than the previous edition.
The tournament acted as qualification for the 2026 Sitting Volleyball World Championships in Hangzhou, China, with two spots available.
United States are the defending champions, after beating Canada 3–2 in a best of five series in the 2023 iteration in Edmonton. Brazil won the tournament after beating United States 3–0 in the final.[1]
On 5 November 2024, Denver, United States were given the hosting rights.[2] This was the third time the event was held in United States, after 2009 and 2013.[3] The event was organised alongside the 2025 USA Volleyball Open National Championship.
“We’re pleased to hold the zonal championship in the United States. This is an excellent opportunity to showcase sitting volleyball to the U.S. audience as we look ahead to both teams competing at LA2028.”
“I’m thrilled that USA Volleyball has agreed to host the 2025 ParaVolley Pan America Sitting Volleyball Zonal Championships. This event is of great significance to the Pan America Zone, as it will provide the top two teams in each gender the opportunity to secure a spot in the 2026 World Championships. Equally important, every participating team will earn valuable World Ranking Points, further enhancing their standing on the global stage. We look forward to an exciting and competitive tournament.”
Three teams took part, one more than the previous edition. Teams arrived on 21 May and departed on 29 May.[4] Brazil return after a one edition absense after their withdrawal in 2023.
